That must just be where you live. In two years when I hit top pay, I'll be making over $80k a year as a patrolman....and thats before overtime (which will push me up into six figures)
there's also lots of differences in police pay...in upstate NY $40,000 is normal, for suffolk county on long island near $100,000 is normal, with westchester/rockland close to LI figures.
congrats on your future earnings and career too! sounds like you're all set and happy.
are you nys trooper or local police?
